No regrets! NOthing but nice accel and Vtec Crossover is felt & audible now! seat of pants dyno is Happy! and if T1R's is on point, the SUmmit pulley is a tad lighter than theirs and theirs made 1.5 hp on an M/T (I have!) so I'm hoping to be getting that much as well!

guys just got this from another honda forum maybe its good to share here:
for those who have installed the crank pulley, make sure u get the installer to adjust the belt properly. Mine got some rough 'tak tak tak' sound when the car is cold sometimes, just send back to the SC and they told me the belt tension not adjusted properly. So they helped me to adjust it back. Will test it out tomorrow morning when i start the car.

Leonine, they re-ran the dyno on the t1r on an M/T and it gained HP look at the thread again! But either way, the GTspec pulley is like the T1r's in the way of being non-dampened and light. GT's actually a bit lighter!
If you need someone to do the install you have my number!

Sure no problem. If you want, it might be a good idea, seeing that you are a handy fellow, to get used to taking the pulley on and off for the reason of Honda warranty issues!
Like you said, if something goes wrong with ur motor, you'll just swap out the pulley and tow it to your dealer, they'll never be the wiser!
I would say that it really is an easy install, would take about 15-30 mins. Just loosen the serp. belt using adjusters on the accessories, and buzz the pulley off with an impact wrench. slide the belt back on, and re tighten the belt with the adjusters on the accessories. You are done!
